Gurgle, Gurgle in the Meeting

I knew what to do, I knew how to do it. One day after a great fill knowing what I needed to eat and how. Did I? NO!

 

I got called into a 7 am meeting last night, and I was prepared. I brought a Slim Fast for an easy breakfast, and put it in the freezer at 7, because my meeting would be over at 8.

 

At 9:30, STARVING, I called a break even though it wasn't my meeting. I ran over to the other building where I found my shake frozen solid. Reaching into my every-prepared lunch bag for backup, I encountered some deli turkey. I kind of downed it fast. I ran back over to the other building and sat down as the meeting reconvened. TROUBLE.

 

The deli meat might not have been chewed too well. It stuck right there in my chest and I started to gurgle! My boss was sitting next to me giving me these funny looks. I excused myself and walked around for about five minutes and felt better.

 

Lesson: the best laid plans......... AND no matter what, don't swallow ANYTHING whole!

:lol:

Very entertaining writing.......I giggled at the way you wrote this but also felt sorry for your pain. Thanks for the lesson. Not banded yet but will keep this in mind.

I do the same thing! It is hard to eat slow when you know you don't have much time and your HUNGRY!

LOL. I tend to find the humor in things, and I kind of wish I would have thrown up in that meeting -- it would have been symbolic.

Today is so much better! No worries but then again, I'm eating slower and not having to chew at all (soft soft foods that are already cut up -- even the turkey!)
